I'm still a student and i'm trying to restore my 82MK2 to regular working condition. I don't want to got to a mechanic because I know they will rip me off . I know some stuff abut fixing cars, but not enough. Will you guys help me out?!?!
I have a problem when I first start up the car and warm it up in the morning, it dies and I have to start it like 4 or five times to get it to work and I have to step on the gas. (I guess that's normal for an older car. It could be the ignitor assembly. I don't know. )
anyways...
Later in the day when I leave school, I have to pull out of an inclined driveway up into the main street. I step on the gas and it doesn't sense that i'm stepping on the gas. I could hear the high RPM and my car rolls backwards. Then it somehow senses that i'm stepping on the gas after two seconds and I peel out as I leave the inclined driveway of my school parking lot. Keep in mind I have an AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. Not a good sign.
I'm thinking it could be the throttle sensor but i'm not sure. :?
Any suggestions would really help.
